The blue beast opened its eyes and rose to its full height, dwarfing the surrounding rubble and making Ahote seem puny in comparison. The Frost Giant narrowed its eyes, looking around for the miscreant that had attacked and rendered it unconscious, but there was no one in sight. Spitting on the ground, the Frost Giant then started to head south - in the direction of what had been the Port. Thinking on Loki and the end of the world, Ahote will remember a myth that he overheard of the Serpent. Supposedly, this creature was one of Loki's children and was so large that it surrounded the world, dwelling in bodies of water to elude capture by Thor, as Thor had sworn to slay the Serpent. Of course, a moment later Prince Myrus appeared right next to him, looking incredibly confused. There was blood on his clothing. [color=ff0000]"... Are my sisters safe?"[/color] he asked Ahote frantically.

[/b][/i][/color] Nera's expression darkened. [color=7bcdc8][i]"As long as Meliscente's child sits on the throne, I will never be happy,"[/i][/color] she said bitterly. Some people got past old grudges when they entered Ghosthood - Nera was not one of them. She still hated Valda, Luna, and Myrus with a passion. They were going to pay for the sins of their mother. And once she had stayed in this spot for a year and a day, she would be able to maybe [b]Cause[/b] an accident to befall them. She smiled at the thought of sending Princess Luna into the Moat to drown. To Fleur, Nera's hand would just feel like an icy wind. [color=7bcdc8][i]"Go, enjoy yourself,"[/i][/color] Nera told her love. [color=7bcdc8][i]"I'll be here as always."[/i][/color] It wasn't like she could get up and leave, after all. [color=ff0000][i][b]The Dragon Boat - traveling to the Castle...[/b][/i][/color] It would take them approximately half an hour to travel back to the Castle via the Dragon Boat. Although the boat was not utilizing her full speed, she had been dormant for ages - her wings were a bit stiff so it was perhaps for the best that she was taking things slow. They haven't run into any issues so far and in the next few minutes, they'll be able to see the Port in the distance. Some of the clouds in the sky have interesting shapes - one of them even looks exactly like mistletoe. Funny, huh? Oh dear, what's that? A FIREBALL!!! The dragon boat swerves out of the way just in time, dodging it. It definitely came from the Port.

Marya and Medea always had a tendency to get into trouble, so he ended up having to watch them while their parents worked on various machines and inventions. His eyes watered briefly and he had to wonder what his parents would say, if they saw him now. He had never seen their ghosts - maybe they were nearby and just hadn't [b]Appeared[/b] to him, but he doubted it. Most likely, they had gone back to the Eastern SnowPlains, wanting to stay out of the lives of their children. [color=cc33ff]"The cock sucker is probably off finding more people to abandon,"[/color] Antonije muttered bitterly to Myth. [color=cc33ff]"It won't be long until he forgets about you and the baby, I bet. He does that - he collects people like pets and then forgets about them, leaving them behind!"[/color] There was anger and pain in his eyes, but mostly fury. If Bruce had been there, Sylvi would be fine - he was sure of it. It was all Bruce's fault and he wanted to punch the demigod as hard as he could, repeatedly even until his knuckles bled and caved in on themselves. He lost telepathic control of Sylvi and he turned to face her, a silent question as to what would she do. He didn't care what Myth thought about their relationship. All he wanted to do was keep Sylvi safe. It didn't matter if he had to cross a few lines to do so. Inside the Palace, Myrus felt relieved at Bruce's words - they hadn't found his sisters yet. He glanced at Lennox for a moment, before he decided to actually go along with what Bruce said and get out of there. The vampires weren't backing down, charging at Lennox and Bruce without any fear. He had a pretty good idea as to where his sisters would be hiding and he took off, running east until he hit a stretch of wall - and just ran straight through it, emerging inside of the Queen's Room. Glancing around, he saw that there was a glass shard on the ground and somehow, water was coming out of one of the cabinets? [color=ff0000]"... Valda, Luna, are you two using [b]Magyk[/b] to hide?"[/color] he called out, feeling a bit silly as he picked up the glass shard. There was a [i]POP[/i] and Myrus vanished, the glass shard clattering back to the ground. Over along the Long Walk, Gypsy rolled her eyes at Amarantha. "You need to learn to hunt for yourself, newborn," she muttered. Wiping off a bit of blood on her sleeve, Gypsy then gave her a smirk. "You're the army woman, yeah?" she asked, apparently recognizing Amarantha. It would take Amarantha a moment, but she would remember seeing this woman at the marketplace a week or so ago. Had these vampires been waiting for the best moment to strike? "Anyways, come on, boss'll be wanting us."[hr][hr][center][h1][b][i][color=ed145b]Halley Banner[/color][/i][/b][/h1][img]https://i.postimg.cc/QdnhxFKS/tumblr-oypqjn-QGjz1rfco8go1-400.gif[/img][hr][hr][b][color=ed145b]Location:[/color][/b] the Docks - the Port [b][color=ed145b]Skills:[/color][/b] [b]Chaos Magyk[/b][hr][/center] [color=ed145b]"I disagree,"[/color] she told Arnora simply. Cuyler was insisting that a dead woman was nearby and the fact that he still had feelings for Arya was obvious. She needed him to know the truth, in order to ensure that he wouldn't see his ex-lover in every bit of stray [b]Magyk[/b] they encountered. She would rather he be sad than deluded. Of course, Halley wasn't going to ever admit to being wrong herself - she was stubborn and certain that her choices were the correct ones, no matter what. She then raised an eyebrow at him, as he questioned the extent of her [b]Magyk[/b]. [color=ed145b]"You forget who my mother is - I can manipulate [b]Magyk[/b],"[/color] she reminded Cuyler. Catching movement, Halley then glanced up towards the sky. She put her hand in front of her face in an attempt to get a better view and she spotted... [i]a dragon[/i] flying towards them. What was going on here? Midgard did have its fair share of dragons, but they were almost extinct by this point. She didn't count Thalia and her children, since they were time dragons and technically not from this time period. Cuyler's axe started to spin, now pointing between the Castle and the dragon. [color=ed145b]"Well that's convenient,"[/color] she commented, making a ball of [b]Chaos Magyk[/b] in order to create a small, controlled flare - instead, she ended up launching a huge fireball up into the sky, narrowly missing the dragon boat and her passengers. [color=ed145b]"There, I've signaled for them."[/color]
